La. Admin. Code tit. 28 § CLIX-705

Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 11, November 20, 2024
Section CLIX-705 - Self-Concept
A. How children feel about themselves and their own sense of worth has a lot to do with later success in life. Children who have a positive sense of self are more likely to try new things and work toward reaching goals. They tend to accept new challenges and feel more confident about their ability to handle any problems or difficulties that may come up.
B. Children's self-concept develops very early in life. How children see themselves and how they feel about themselves is related to their early relationships. These early relationships help young children learn about who they are and how they are seen by others. When caregivers and teachers respond to children with acceptance and positive regard, children feel important and they learn to feel good about themselves.
